Leak: Moto G specs and pricing revealed ahead of tomorrow’s event

Ahead of Motorola’s planned special event this Tuesday, a Brazilian retailer accidentally uploaded unboxing photos of the third-gen Moto G. As a result, we basically know most everything there is to know about the third generation of the budget-friendly Moto G.

The leaked photos, originally spotted by Pocketnow, reveal that the upcoming Moto G will feature a 1.4 GHz quad-core processor, a 13 megapixel rear facing camera, a front facing 5 megapixel camera, a 5-inch display made out of sturdy Gorilla Glass, LTE connectivity, 16GB of storage, an IPX7 waterproof rating, and the ability to personalize the device via different colored and interchangeable shells.

Price wise, the third-gen Moto G will likely retain the same $179 price point as the second-generation model, this according to a purported pricing matrix from an internal US Cellular system which leaked out this past Friday.

At this point, it seems that the only detail still open for speculation is how much RAM the third-gen Moto G will come with. On that front, we have seen some rumblings that 2GB of RAM is to be expected.

All in all, it looks like the already well-received Moto G will be packing quite a bit of bang for the buck.

Lastly, here’s are some shots of both the front and back of the Moto G box.
